Consistency is the key. Practice this the
correct way every time you shoot!

Dribbling

• Skills
• Use the pads of the fingers.
• Keep the ball below your waist.
• Try to keep your head up and watch where you are
  going.
• Use your right and your left hand!

• Rules
• If you stop dribbling, you must pivot, shoot or
  pass. (You cannot pick up the ball, then dribble
  again.)
• You cant touch the ball with both hands at the
  same time.

Passing

• Chest pass
• Start with both elbows out and the ball at your
  chest. Throw the ball to your partner or
  teammate, then follow through with straight arms
  and thumbs pointed down.
• Bounce Pass
• Start the same way. Bounce ball 2/3 of the way
  between you and your partner so the ball bounces
  up to his/her waist level. Follow through with
  arms straight and pointing at the ground where
  you want the ball to bounce.
